Five-Year Plan

I just spent over an hour trying to log on to my long-dormant blogs without any luck. They would recover my forgotten password and then email it to an address I haven't used in years. There seemed to be no way around this maddening situation so I decided to start fresh. I also opened a twitter account using the screen name of scotus1962 which works nicely for me. My date of arrival was October 23rd 1962, at the very height of the Cuban Missile Crisis. It was touch and go there for a while, but then "the other fellow blinked" as Secretary of State Dean Rusk described the step back from the abyss.
